Chapter 7 Chance Encounter (two chapters sent, ask for collection, recommendation, monthly pass)
As the sky grew brighter, Feilong and the others had already driven the villagers to gather in the open space in the middle. When passing by Lao Diao's side, Lao Diao nodded lightly. This made the flying dragon's eyes change a little when he looked at Lu Xiao.
But at the moment, he is more concerned about the issue of loot. They have taken complete control of the village. More than half of the young adults were killed. The whole village has lost the ability to resist.
Some of the bandits are going from house to house searching for something valuable. From air-dried bacon, to grain rice and noodles, to a small number of jewelry, heavy metal coins and so on. These bandits want everything.
Lu Xiao and the others drove six camels, which were used to transport these things. But these seemingly ordinary things, in the eyes of those villagers, are their lives. After all, being able to eat enough is already the biggest dream of most people here. If you take away their food, you will take half their lives.
Some elderly people couldn't bear to take away their food reserves and rushed out to resist. But he was soon killed as an example and slaughtered on the spot. The rest of the crowd did not dare to move anymore, and could only suppress their cries. With a pair of eyes containing fear, hatred, and blankness, he looked at Lu Xiao and the others.
Lu Xiao was a little nervous, he was afraid that the flying dragon would order all these people to be killed. Because according to his observations, the Wyvern is a dehuman, moody madman, and it is perfectly fine to give such orders.
He didn't know what to do if he received such an order. Fortunately, the Wyvern seemed to be paying attention to the trickle, and just took most of the things, and had no intention of continuing to slaughter. This made Lu Xiao breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he was also sad for these villagers.
After this battle, the village has been broken and may not be able to breathe for three or five years. It is even possible to disappear completely into the desert. However, Lu Xiao knew this, but he couldn't do anything about it. After all, it's not clear whether he can survive these people.
.................
The income from this hunting was enough to make these horse bandits happy for more than a month. These horse bandits have no pursuits, they have wine, meat, and women, and they are very satisfied. It's just that in the camp, women are a consumable. So, after the women in the camp died, they would go to another place for recreation, a town.
went to the town, and Lu Xiao and several other low-ranking horse bandits also participated. It's just that they don't go to the town for recreation, but to buy forage in the town.
That's right, these bandits also spend money on forage. After all, forage is not valuable, but it takes up a lot of space. If you take someone to grab it, the horsepower consumed on the road and the capacity of the camel are better than spending money to buy a little.
Anyway, their money comes easily. There is no capital to buy, and it is not distressing to spend it. However, the specific ones who did the work were Lu Xiao and the other two younger horse bandits.
Horse bandits are creatures, and they don't have to be expected to have any conscience. It's as if Lu Xiao and the three of them belong to the oppressed class, and theoretically the three of them should be on the same side. But in fact, the only thing that the other two horse bandits thought of was to squeeze Lu Xiao, who was more qualified, as much as possible.
Lu Xiao did not resist, but silently resisted most of the work. Although he also has a knife in his hand, he can only slash a few blindly. Even the two lowest-ranked horse bandits were not something he could deal with.
That night, Lu Xiao saw with his own eyes the combat power of Feilong and the others. These horse bandits are not something that can be dealt with by just one person with a knife.
One of the benefits of buying forage and other jobs is that you can leave the bandits' den and go to a town not far away.
This is the only place in the surrounding area that can be called a town. Although the town has neither walls nor a government office. But the town has a huge bit and a lot of people.
Lu Xiao estimates that there should be more than 4,000 households in the entire town. It has a population of more than 20,000 people. In a town of this size, even a horse bandit of the level of a flying dragon would not dare to do it easily.
They can rush in and burn and loot. But once it provoked the anger of the people, it was besieged. One person throwing a stone was enough to kill them. What's more, the town is the only place around where they can have fun. Horse bandits generally only make small noises, and do not really do guns.
I have been in the horse bandits' den for a month, and this is the third time Lu Xiao has entered the city. As is customary, this time they still work, and the rest go for recreation.
However, this time, the transaction went relatively smoothly, and Lu Xiao quickly bought enough forage. This gave him about half an hour of free time. He thought about it for a moment, and finally took a knife and walked around the surrounding streets.
The town was not prosperous. Although there are many taverns and restaurants, the business is not good in terms of foot traffic. It is estimated that it is barely making ends meet. In fact, the most prosperous place in the whole town is the place where the horse bandits spend their time, and everyone should know what it is. That place is naturally not something that Lu Xiao can consume.
He turned and walked down another street. It's even more deserted here, but looking at the surrounding buildings, they are tall and real, a notch higher than the rest of the buildings.
Lu Xiao went around to the front and saw a huge plaque on the door, which read Lian Feng.
Listening to the sound of striking iron coming from inside, Lu Xiao guessed that this should be a large blacksmith shop.
Just as Lu Xiao was about to leave, the door opened. A young man walked out, and the two of them looked at each other in a daze.
The man was stunned because Lu Xiao had a knife in his hand, and it didn't look like he had come to buy a knife. And Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, because he felt a little familiar with the man's face.
That face was very much like a movie star he had seen in his previous life. Kung Fu star, Lian Feng, Flying Dragon...... The doubts in Lu Xiao's heart were connected one by one, and finally Lu Xiao came to a conclusion that made him not know whether he was happy or worried.
This is a movie world called Knife Breaker. The man in front of him should be the male protagonist Ding'an, and the leader of the horse bandits where he is, Feilong. is the villain of the whole story.
Lu Xiao's impression of this movie is okay. The main reason is that the tone of the whole movie is extremely heavy and dark, and the action scenes are even more bloody and violent. Although I saw it a long time ago. But it still made a considerable impression on him.
Traveling to a familiar movie world is undoubtedly a relatively good thing. At least have the advantage of the plot and be able to let yourself operate.
But if you're crossing an identity that is cannon fodder who doesn't even deserve a name, that's a bit of a bad thing. Lu Xiao only felt that the life that had been oppressive for him had begun to suffocate him.
He knew that it was no longer enough to just survive, and he needed to take the initiative to do some planning.
